There is a similar situation where I live involving a husband who strangled his wife to death and chopped her up into pieces, all the while leading the police and media to believe that he was a grieving husband. Her torso was found in the garage of the family home. It makes you wonder what goes through the minds of some people.

The family who raped and killed that 6 year old boy come to mind immediately. How does a woman watch her son and husband do that? I honestly don't understand that and don't want to.

There was that case down in florida where that convicted sex offender kidnapped, raped and murdered a little girl. And he was living with two other people at the time. The gutless prosecuter ignored them. They HAD to know something was going on. Especially with his history. As far as I am concerned, all child molesters should be tortured and executed- publicly.

Incredibly sad.

While obviously I feel great compassion for the victim. I honestly feel compassion as well for the perpetrator. Especially since he's apparently feeling some level of remorse.

How does this happen? Perhaps its possible that some are just predominantly evil in a manner that cannot be traced to upbringing or other life events. But I suspect most of these perpetrators are acting out in part due to their own life circumstances. Am I suggesting they are somehow absolved or less responsible. No. But I do feel compassion. Yes, justice needs to be served. But doing so in a vengeful way is not my recommendation.

If common man will stop and think about his own past and stupid things they did that could have lead to tragedy had things fallen differently I don't think its as big a stretch to have compassion.

I suspect my comments will outrage some. Not my intent. But I do intend to make us consider just how things might have turned out differently for ourselves.

My college student niece was killed when a fellow student fell asleep at the wheel and ran up onto the sidewalk killing her and two other friends as they walked along the street. I have compassion for that young driver. Honestly folks its tragic on both sides.

Ever driven when too drowsy, or perhaps under the influence? You and I are often not as different from these "offenders" as we'd like to think. Have mercy.

People who commit murder in cold blood should not even go to prison. They should get the needle right away and be put to death. That would act as a much bigger deterrent than the current punishments given.

Now watch as his defense attorneys try and get all that thrown out because he did not understand his rights, or something like that. Or claim he was abused as a child. Garbage like him should be hung on the nearest lamp post.

Not Guilty by reason of insanity. They will say He did'nt know what he was doing was wrong. Mark my words, Complete BS :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Why not just lynch 'em. Rope's cheaper too.

Now I am not anti-capital punishment, I know full well that some people ought to be just stood up against the wall and shot. But this is serious business and should be handled with a very high level of scrutiny. Just check out the number of people pulled off the Cook County death row if you want to see the errors that can happen. The deterence factor does not show up that strongly in any studies. Other than the fact that dead folks commit no new crimes. Though crime of passion murderers are considered to have among the lowest of recidivist rates anyway.

Now I don't know all the facts of the case, and perhaps this guy should go up against the wall. It's best that this sort of thing is done carefully, or we will end with innocent blood on our hands. Just like him.

This is a terrible thing for everyone involved. Her family is doubtless devastated. My sympathies go out to them.

“He told me, with the investigator in the car, where to go. He led us all the way, and when he stood before the dumpster, he broke down, and he said, 'This is where I put her,”' said Quanell X.
He broke down.

Now, that's the worst part of all.

It's evil to kill someone in cold blood. Don't compound that evil by showing remorse after the fact.

Human life is to be treasured above all else. Even the tiniest bit of compassion for your fellow human beings should be enough to temper even the most heated level of hate.

That tiny speck of compassion should have stopped him before he even touched her. It didn't--probably because it never existed. Yet, supposedly, he's regretful to the point of tears. After the fact. Horse puckey.

He broke down.

Yeah, right.

I agree. In no way am I saying that what the perpetrator did is acceptable, it's something totally reprehensible in our society, but situations like these do give us reason to pause and reflect on why people do these things.

and yes, I'm doubtful of what vengeance ultimately reaps, other than more vengeance. He'll serve his time, but do ideas such as "line 'em up and shoot 'em all" really replace what was lost?

No, but it keeps criminals from commiting more crimes. They say dead men tell not tales, but you could also say that dead murderers do not commit murder again. I'm not saying that we should line up all criminals and just kill them, but people who are guilty of commiting such crimes as murder and even rape should be put to death. Not so much for the revenge factor but because most criminals are repeat offenders. It would also free up prison space so tax payers wouldn't have to keep feeding and clothing these animals.

Tynesha Stewart, 19, was last seen March 15.
FAMILY HANDOUT​

Deputies: A&M student strangled over another


By PAIGE HEWITT
Copyright 2007 Houston Chronicle

The 27-year-old man charged in the killing of a Texas A&M student told authorities late Wednesday night that he strangled the 19-year-old during a fight over another man.

Timothy Wayne Shepherd told investigators around 11 p.m. what happened to Tynesha Stewart, 19, who had been missing since March 15.

"They had a fight about their relationship, and her relationship with a new boyfriend," said Lt. John Denholm with the Harris County Sheriff's homicide division. "He said he choked her...He said he put her in a large plastic tote, and then put her in his car and took her to the Dumpster."

Denholm said Shepherd at first refused to cooperate but later changed his mind and confessed.

Authorities are investigating whether Shepherd physically abused Stewart in the past, Denholm said.

Stewart's body, which could be buried under an estimated 50,000 tons of waste and dirt, probably never will be recovered, he said.

Excavating the two landfills where Stewart's body may be — one in the Atascocita area and the other in Brazoria County — could run at least $350,000, Denholm said.

And, he said, it would take time and would probably require approval from county officials because taxpayers would likely have to pay for it.

"Any expenditure like that would most likely have to be approved by commissioner's court," Denholm said.

Such approval, he said, could delay the search and drive excavation costs up further, as 5,000 to 6,000 tons of waste are hauled to the two sites per day.

Private companies charge $6 to $7 per ton to excavate.

"Even as we speak, hundreds of tons of trash have been dumped, just during this conversation," he said.

Further complicating the recovery of the body are landfill regulations.

Denholm said Stewart's family has been told the body probably will not be recovered.

"They seem to be understanding," he said. "Everybody who has had contact with this family is impressed with their faith."

Stewart, last seen March 15, was spending spring break at her mother's apartment when she left with Shepherd, authorities said.

Investigators questioned Shepherd Wednesday and on Thursday, he confessed to Quanell X, who then contacted Harris County homicide investigators, who met them in Quanell's car near Shepherd's apartment in the 17700 block of Red Oak, Denholm said. At about 5 p.m. Wednesday, he led Quanell X and investigators to the trash bin.

"He told me, with the investigator in the car, where to go. He led us all the way, and when he stood before the Ddumpster, he broke down, and he said, 'This is where I put her,' " said Quanell X.

Shepherd was "absolutely stressed out," the activist said. "He said some things to me that were internally disturbing. He spoke about his family life, the traumatic experiences he had as a young man ... that God (had) forsaken him."

As they continued on the drive, he said, Shepherd confessed to the slaying.

"As I was praying with him and praying with him, I told him, 'Just take me to her. Show me where she is. ... you don't have to tell me what happened or how it happened, just take me to her,' " he said.

Quanell X said they stopped next to the Polo Club Apartments, and Shepherd pointed to the dumpster where he had placed the body.

The garbage bin has been emptied at least twice since Stewart went missing, and its contents may have been transported to different locations, sheriff's Lt. John Martin said. He said the waste management company is helping narrow down the search.

Gale Stewart, Tynesha's mother, said, "When I first got there and I saw the dumpster, I said, 'Just give him to me. I want to kill him, I want to kill him.' But that's not God's way. ... and for Timothy to do something like that, he could not have been a God-fearing man."

She said her daughter had broken off the relationship, but Shepherd refused to let her go.

"He was older, and older men tend to be possessive," she said.

Stewart's friends, meanwhile, let go of their hope and began to mourn.

"It hit me, but it hasn't really set in," said 19-year-old Kendria Smith, holding back tears. "It will take a long time to register in my head. I'm in total shock right now."

Smith met Stewart in the fifth grade. They were best friends with two other girls through high school, attending prom and homecoming dances together, playing basketball and singing in the choir. They all went to different colleges but kept in close touch.

"We're basically sisters," Smith said. "We used to call ourselves four-part harmony, because we would sing together."

Off-and-on relationship

Smith said Stewart met Shepherd while working at Pizza Hut in 11th grade. They dated until the beginning of this school year, when Smith says Shepherd got back together with the mother of his young daughter.

"Tynesha was really hurt," she said. By Christmas, the two had reunited, only to break up again in January. In February, Stewart had met someone new and was "on the verge" of a relationship with him, Smith said.

"I guess she just got tired of him being so insecure," she said. "I know he was really overprotective." Even after the couple broke up, Smith said, he continued to call Stewart, her friends and even her college roommate to check on where she was. And when three of the four old school friends got together for a late night dinner March 10, looking forward to reuniting over spring break, Stewart told them she thought she saw Shepherd's car following them.

"I could tell she was frightened, but I didn't realize the severity of it," Smith said.

When Stewart's friends realized she was missing, they realized something else, Smith said. Shepherd had stopped calling to check on her.

If you imprison someone for life without parole how can they be a repeat offender? What about manslaughter or negligent homicide? Does that require the death penalty as well.

On another note, there have been periods of history in which the penalty for murderers was more or less unequivocally death. Did this stop people from killing? No. People kill. That's one constant you find in every society in human history. In modern times, we've adapted to a "penitentiary" or "correctional" based facilities in which the intent is to rehabilitate the prisoner. Is this a better way to deal with the problem of murder? I'm not sure but in many ways it'sa more idealistic and compassionate one.

That's the danger of a young lady 19, being with an older man 27, most of the time the older man wants a long term commitment and the young lady probably isn't ready for it so it leads to them breaking up and that doesn't sit to well with the older guy.

This is a sad story as well Hos, there was this young woman 27, in a relationship with a get this a 52 yr old man from and he was already married to another woman conflicting reports, stated that he was given this young lady anything she wanted money, clothes, and even a car and he found out the young woman was cheating on him with a younger guy and it caused the older man to shoot her 5 times killing her.

My thoughts and prayers goes out to Aaron, and his family for this horrible action by this guy.

I'm not for, or against the death penalty, because killing the murderer won't bring a loved one back.

I say let that ******* rot in jail until he dies because if you think about it life in prison is like that guy is dead anyway.
